Of late, I keep getting a message "Internet Explorer has encountered an error and has to close. You will lose any work you were working on. We apologise for any inconvenience" or words to that effect. It's only on this site, and only on this computer (which I recently changed to). I've tried the usual empty cookies, delete temporary files, etc, but it keeps coming up. It happens about half the time I visit the site, and usually within a couple of minutes. Any ideas?

It's a work computer; not my call. ;)

Besides, given the problem is exclusively on one site and on one computer, I don't think IE is the problem. Maybe it's the computer telling me to get back to work!

Would something like websence be trying to block the site?

Would seriously doubt it.

Similar thing happens to me whenever I use the computers at college to log on here. I get a few minutes of browsing and then I get one of those "send error report" messages.

It doesn't happen on any other site I use.

Bump on this.

Any ideas? Very annoying.

Are you using the latest version of IE?

Think so. How do I check?

Click About Internet Explorer on the Help menu or press Alt + H and then press A.

Holy god Stu, IE7 was replaced in October 2006!

Not my fault - work computer!

It's only foot.ie that's crashing, but sure I'll update and see if it stops. Cheers.
